A half-century after the publication of THE FOUNTAINHEAD, Ayn Rand's ideas remain both highly controversial and extremely influential. In THE AYN RAND CULT, Jeff Walker exposes the woman behind the ideas, questioning whether they are as original as her followers claimed. He looks at the devoted following she attracted in the 1940s and 1950s, how it was shaped by her volatile and domineering personality, and what remains of it today. Ultimately, Walker argues, her Objectivist movement came to practice the opposite of the principles it espoused-individualism and objectivity-evolving into a dictatorial cult in which members suffered arranged marriages, took new names in homage to Rand, and were tried and excommunicated for expressing opinions different from Rand's.
